I don't even think it takes knowledge of implementation, just respect for it. I've had engineers ask me to fix certain design problems that would take weeks of prototyping and user testing to actually nail down in a meaningful way. Good devs appreciate the difficulty and we find a solution that fits the schedule, bad devs think design is easy to do. It runs both ways. Let's avoid making needless blanket statements and concentrate on working together.
